In the easier implementation I can think of, changing the ring size will cause the loose of the ring content, but this 
should be the only issue. 

I assume that the creation of a new function to set the ring size is the preferred choice, so I'll try to rework the 
patch that way. Just a question: I suppose that adding said function will require one more function pointer in the pcap 
handle structure, right ?

Thanks again for the feedback,

Paolo
